Join The Downhill Zone's Adam Schaeffer and me as we take a deep dive into this brilliant new light enduro/all mountain/aggressive trail bike with downhill DNA built in. Index:

Are you a fan of pro downhill mountain bike racing — the UCI World Cup circuit with legends Greg Minnaar, Aaron Gwin, Loic Bruni, Loris Vergier, Val Holl, Myriam Nicole, Nina Hoffman and others?
